block: misc cleanups in barrier code
Make the following cleanups in preparation of barrier/flush update. * blk_do_ordered() declaration is moved from include/linux/blkdev.h to block/blk.h. * blk_do_ordered() now returns pointer to struct request, with %NULL meaning "try the next request" and ERR_PTR(-EAGAIN) "try again later". The third case will be dropped with further changes. * In the initialization of proxy barrier request, data direction is already set by init_request_from_bio(). Drop unnecessary explicit REQ_WRITE setting and move init_request_from_bio() above REQ_FUA flag setting. * add_request() is collapsed into __make_request(). These changes don't make any functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
